Chapter 44: The First Things to Do When I Took Office
Xiao Lie was extremely unhappy when he heard this: "What's so difficult about this, is there really no royal law in this bright world?"
Jiang Xiaoyu sat down next to Nangong Junzhe: "When the three of us went to the coffin shop to buy longevity materials, I listened to the shopkeeper's chatter, and he said that last night, there was a little widow who made people spoil. The person who spoiled the little widow was the brother-in-law of the prefect of Huai'an Prefecture, and he was used to relying on his brother-in-law's power, and they also went to Jiangjiabao to meet a friend, and accidentally saw this little widow, and they spoiled people at night. It just so happened that the little widow's house was not far from the guys' house, and it just happened. ”
"Isn't it easy to do it if you already know who it is, let's deal with them directly, this matter will be over, what's so difficult to do. Xiao Lie pursed his lips.
Nangong Junzhe smiled: "Brother Xiao, don't you know that our small family can't fight with such a big force." ”
"How about Cui Sanshi, don't you let our brother be destroyed anyway, Huai'an Mansion is not as good as Xudu City, there are not so many city defenders, let's arrest him first, send him directly to Lord Liu's mansion, and let Lord Liu directly send him down. ”
"Brother Xiao, this is not so simple, Cui Sanshi has endangered the interests of the imperial court, and this person is just a rampant bully, how can we move the grass people. Once we deal with him, the court will pay more attention to us, and we really have no way out. Even if we take the initiative to deal with him and sue Lord Liu, I'm afraid we will be suppressed by all kinds of relationships. Nangong Junzhe calmly preached to Xiao Lie.
"It's still a matter of being an official, so what should I do about it?" Xiao Lie squatted angrily outside the pavilion.
Yin Xuesong came over and squatted with him: "This matter is easy to do, as long as we accept the reward from the imperial court, the official rank is greater than that of the prefect, and the so-called official level crushes people to death, this matter can be done logically." Give him to Lord Liu, even if someone suppresses it, it is reasonable for us to intervene in the second time, and we are not afraid of anything. ”
"You've all decided on something, and if I twist it, it seems that I don't understand it. Xiao Lie muttered.
"Great, let's agree first, and in the days to come, as long as we find that what the court is doing starts to go against the will of the people, we won't serve them. Yin Xuesong stood up happily and said.
Xiao Lie also stood up and returned to the pavilion and said to everyone: "The first thing after taking office is to deal with the matter of his brother-in-law who is the governor of Huai'an Mansion first, kill people to pay off debts and debts, and can't let him continue to go unpunished." ”
"This is natural, if we don't bring such criminals to justice, we will be a fart official. It's almost time, Brother Yin bothering you to go and bring our letter of appointment to Lord Liu's mansion, without this talisman, it will never work. Nangong Junzhe patted Xiao Lie's shoulder and said to Yin Xuesong at the same time.
"Okay, I'll go now, but what about these three people now?" Yin Xuesong pointed to the worker's room.
Jiang Xiaoyu walked over silently: "Our guys naturally went to their house to report the funeral." When the manpower I hired arrived, I sent them home one by one, and each family was paying a settlement fee of 100 taels. ”
When everyone saw that nothing had gone wrong, they went their separate ways. I was busy until the evening, and then I stopped. Yin Xuesong handed over the letters of appointment of several people to them, Xiao Lie looked at the letters of appointment, and couldn't help smiling: "I really didn't expect it, I, a person who does the trade of dead people, is still the life of an official, and we will start arresting people tomorrow, right?"
Zhao Haiquan came over, hugged his fists and bowed to the ground: "Deputy Commander Shi, if you catch such a mess, you don't need the army to come forward, just hand it over to our Jinyi Guard." If you find it, send it to Lord Liu, he can't run, you can rest assured. ”
"Go, go, don't talk to me like that, I'm so uncomfortable. Everyone laughed, and Xiao Lie asked Yin Xuesong again: "The rest of the things, Lord Liu didn't say when they will send them to Hecheng?"
"Lord Liu has already sent someone over, the distance is relatively far, they are not as fast as us, and they have to wait for a few days. Yin Xuesong replied.
Zuo Tianming smiled and said to Xiao Lie: "Brother Xiao, haven't you always been against being an official, how can this be more anxious than if they don't object." Afraid that Xiao Lie would beat him, he jumped behind Nangong Junzhe as soon as he finished speaking.
"This is also involving human life, otherwise you should like this deputy commander Shi?" Xiao Lie stretched out his hand to fight, Zuo Tianming dodged left and right and walked around behind Nangong Junzhe, so that he was not defeated.
"Okay, okay, don't make trouble, before I leave, Lord Liu can say, our situation in Kanto Province is special, so we don't have a boss official in Kandong Province, although our biggest official is a positive third grade, but in Kandong Province is already the biggest official. Lord Liu told us to act cautiously and cautiously, and we must not do anything out of the ordinary. And we are directly under the command of Lord Liu, so we don't have to listen to others' dispatches. The two people who were fighting separately said to everyone.
"Yo, won't we become the soil emperor of Kanto Province?" Zuo Tianming was extremely happy.
"What is the Emperor of the Earth, this is directly under Lord Liu, we have to be more cautious in doing things, we can't spoil Lord Liu's hard work in vain. Something happened to us, he was suffering, and we became sinners. Yin Xuesong instructed.
"Let's talk about the affairs of Huai'an Mansion, shall we?" Xiao Lie asked as he returned to his seat.
Yin Xuesong also let everyone sit down, and said: "What Shopkeeper Zhao said just now is right, the army should not interfere in such a matter as arresting people, just hand it over to them Jinyi Guard." What we're trying to do right now is another problem. ”
"What's the problem?" Xiao Lie asked, and the eyes of the room fell on Yin Xuesong.
"I plan to open a Kanto Dao League in the Pear Blossom Sect, invite all the people of the twelve factions over, and tell them about this in front of the big guys, if we go to inform them one by one, every move of these sects will not be in our sight. If something apostasy happens, it's too late for us to think about it. ”
"Wait a minute, aren't there thirteen sects, what did you just say about twelve sects?" Xiao Lie wondered.
"Didn't the Syracuse faction let Cui Sanshi destroy the sect, so there are only twelve sects left. Listening to Yin Xuesong's words, Xiao Lie finally understood, it turned out that this Lingyun Dart Bureau was also a sect on the Kanto Road.
"Now, we all have the letter of appointment in our hands, go back to our respective places to hand over our duties, and then start preparing for the affairs of the Kanto Provincial Alliance, and we will set off early tomorrow morning. Yin Xuesong preached to the crowd.
Nangong Junzhe and Zhao Haiquan walked in front of him: "The two of us will set off tonight to chase that bully, and we found out during the day, they will start to return to Huai'an Mansion in the morning, without further ado, so we will chase it tonight." After handling this matter, I will bring the people on Shaohua Mountain and the little fish lady to Hecheng to meet you. ”
"Brother Nangong, what about your marriage with Shopkeeper Jiang?" Xiao Lie asked.
"We have all discussed, the marriage will be held in Hecheng, and she has nothing to worry about here, so it doesn't matter where she gets married. This inn was originally intended to be handed over to Xiao Dezi and them to take care of, but now that they are gone, they simply don't want it, they sell what they can sell, and throw it here if they can't sell it. ”
Nangong Junzhe and Zhao Haiquan packed up their applications, said goodbye to everyone, and chased after Huai'an Mansion. Jiang Xiaoyu reluctantly stood at the door for a long time, and waited until he couldn't see the two of them before returning to the room.
Early the next morning, everyone said goodbye to Jiang Xiaoyu and Mu Zihui, and returned to Hecheng with the Earth Spirit Bead. The handover procedures of Zhenliao Duwei were completed quickly, and they were all completed in less than a day. Xiao Lie bought a large courtyard on the edge of Yizhuang as his residence with Yin Xuesong, Xing Hao, Qiu Feixu, Xu Huanxin, and Zuo Tianming, and Yizhuang was still doing his job. In Xiao Lie's words, this is his root, his root, and he can't forget or lose it.
Zhenxiu returned to Fuhu Temple, and he wanted to tell the presiding abbot about this matter, ask his opinion, and see if he should let the people of Fuhu Temple also join Xiao Lie's Zhenliao Duweizhong.
In the next half month, Yin Xuesong and Xiao Lie were busy. In addition to the daily military training, it is all those who are familiar with the army and have a relationship with all links, and as a commander, if they are not even familiar with these, no one is convinced.
Xiao Lie had been familiar with several minor officials of Zhenliao Duwei before, and this time he became their chief, and their relationship naturally took a step further. Xiao Lie also handed over the post of Zhenliao Duwei to Zuo Tianming, and put his cronies in this position, so Xiao Lie didn't have to do everything himself.
After a few more days, Nangong Junzhe came to Hecheng with Shaohua Mountain's soldiers and horses, settled everyone, changed into official uniforms, and issued waist cards, which can be regarded as really taking office.
One day, Yin Xuesong called the big guys to his residence and said to them: "I've been back for so long, and I've been busy getting acquainted with the affairs of the army, and now that everything is finally sorted out, it's time to start our main event." The Kwantung Provincial Alliance will be scheduled for seven days later, and tomorrow we will go back to the Ewha Sect to arrange the affairs of the Alliance. ”
Nangong Junzhe thought for a while: "After seven days, will it be too early?"
"It's not too early, I'm afraid it's too late!"
